The refresh button is there to force a manual scan for operators. The list is automatically populated with what ofono has cached. We don't want to do a forced scan when the page loads because it could take a full minute sometimes, so it can be useful to allow a forced scan. On android it's called "Scan", which is what ofono calls it as well, perhaps that would be a better string for the button.
